Further to what JPBlue says above, in the 1980s when Ford dropped the V8 they lost a whole generation of buyers who were school kids at the time. Holden will suffer the same fate, it will just take a bit longer, the market has changed forever. Ford's lack of sales would certainly be contributed to by the generation of kids who grew up at that time and would simply never aspire to buying a Ford due to the dark times with no hero car.
